Default Who the heck is charlie2015@wildblue.net ?

I received an e mail from this e mail address. The e mail is connected to the Corvette Forum. How did the person get MY e mail. It is not public on the forum ???????? Who are you ?
Anyone get one.

I sent to trash and did not open as I did not recognize the sender as such, and it had for subject fwd:message

I want to report to administrator and don't know how to contact one.
I would like to know how this happened.
After putting that e mail address into search on the corvette forum, some old posts came up and that is how I know this is connected to the forum !!
Looks like someone who sells items....
Hope someone can explain and soon.

It is possible the email didn't actually come from the sender that you're noting as it may have been "spoofed" (faked). Given that it was a FWD email, I'd consider that more likely. Perhaps you have shared your email address with someone in the same group as the person your noting the email coming from. That's a pretty old Internet trick.

Of course without seeing the email that you deleted, there isn't much more that can be said or done.
